ok after quite a few tests, it seems that it works correctly with the 
run_firefox script every time.
It doesnt work if I open firefox normally (from launcher icon). 
It does work if I open firefox from terminal 
This suggests to that the .bashrc file isnt loaded properly. but then if I type 
echo $LD_PRELOAD in a terminal I get the path to the acroread_exec .so file so 
.bashrc file must be loaded. 

So why wont it work properly if I open firefox from the launcher?
